Hi Joe,

yes I know.
As it is public, I guess that new comers may have seen it and want to 
propose patches based on your cocci script.

So, for now, I'm more focused on things that are not spotted by your 
script. I look for places where the size computation is not done within 
the kmalloc() or eq. function.
